After
releasing our album "It Ain't Easy," we discovered how much
fun it was to perform the song, "Good Feelin' 1957." Later,
we began adding a wardrobe change, during "The Wizard's"
solo segment, when we would put on wigs, wing-tipped shoes
and sparkly spandex shirts. Then, we would do the whole
"doo-wop" choreography. It was done "tongue-in-cheek," but
we would go all out on the performance. Below is a picture
of us, in costume, doing that song. The risers on stage
left, and stage right, housed our keyboard duo, Greenspoon
and Konte. My official name in this "skit" was "Little
Eddie," and my costume was complete with a '57 Les Paul
Junior guitar. We'd end this segment with Floyd doing a drum
solo, which gave us time to go backstage and change back
into our regular stage clothes. At the time, we had an extra
crew member, Ron Berry, whose job was strictly dedicated to
managing wardrobe. He made it all possible and was integral
in the "quick change" process.
